Hello Alan,

Any keris with a longish gandhik has either "kebo" or "mahisa" (maesa) as a part of the name, both words (there are spelling variations) mean "kerbau", "water buffalo", just different language levels.

What is the reason for the use of more than a single language level for use with such (semi-)official dhapur designations from any given keraton?
Regards,
Kai
